ECC.fail: Mounting Rowhammer Attacks on DDR4 Servers with ECC Memory

No ratings

Presented at USENIX Security 2025 by

Rowhammer is a hardware vulnerability present in nearly all computer memory, allowing attackers to modify bits in memory without directly accessing them. While Rowhammer has been extensively studied on client and even mobile platforms, no successful Rowhammer attack has been demonstrated on server platforms using DDR4 ECC memory.
